What women used to use as a douche. Lysol (the original liquid concentrate, not the spray) was actually marketed as a feminine hygiene product by Lehn and
Fink, and
ads actually appeared in women's magazines from the turn of the century up until the early 1960's. Instructions for making douche solution was actually on the Lysol bottle's labels. (one teaspoon Lysol, added to one quart warm
water, mix in a separate container before pouring into douche
bag). Also, after many lawsuits, mainly from women who had their vaginas irritated by Lysol, Lehn and
Fink (now Reckitt Benckiser) stopped marketing Lysol concentrate as a douche. And the introduction of the disinfectant solution into a vagina made odor worse, not
better, since it affected the vagina's natural pH balance. More about Lysol douche at the Museum of Menstrual and Feminine Health http://www.
